Opinions on dlp?

How good can dlp get. I have never been impressed with lcd projectors and cant seem to find anybody with a good projection system for under 5000. DLP sounds good but I have yet to see it set up properly. Please tell me what components you have seen and the screen size and distance from viewing position. The infocus dl 130 seems to be aimed towards home theater. Any 16:9 dlp chips in the future?
thanks!
